RE: XFree4.2 -> unstable?
Hey, I was able to finally get my indy to boot at 1280x1024, with "setenv
monitor H" in the prom.
This is for my SGI Indy, Newport 24-bit graphics, and my monitor is a
"Radius PrecisionColor
Display/20" a.k.a. Sony GDM-1971.
I hope 1024x768 will be supported eventually, though.
